[@carstarsarstenstesenn]

Some things were better, but a lot was worse. Today our cities are far cleaner and less polluted by industry. Things were only better for white men, anyone else had it worse. Sidewalks didn't even have ramps, so it really sucked to be disabled, injured, elderly, or just to push around a stroller/cart. Quality of life was not great back then, think about all the things you take for granted today: nice appliances, AC, quick shipping, and 2 day weekends only began in 1926, and took time to spread. Women were only granted the right to vote in 1920, and later in many countries. They were also barred from acts as practical and simple as wearing pants, or from enjoying a vice, like smoking in public. Smoking in public, even on trains and in small rooms, is another thing that was normal, whether you liked and whether you had health issues or not. That also reminds me of hygiene, which was far worse back then. People didn't shower or wash their clothes nearly as much, horses were still somewhat common, leaving feces in the streets, and you don't want to think about dental hygiene. If you were alive back then, you'd also have to go through the future decades which would mean the a little thing called the GREAT DEPRESSION, which was immediately followed by a little event known as WORLD WAR 2 and then you would just have the Cold War for... the rest of your life. The 50s also had the thalidomide scandal which caused thousands of birth defects in babies around the world, the 60s saw assassinations and public unrest increase, and then white flight and urban renewal led to the destruction of our cities. I'm very glad I didn't have to live through all that (and I didn't even mention Jim Crow, prohibition & mobs, the Dust Bowl, child labor, internment camps, etc)

[@carstarsarstenstesenn]

@@panagiotist47 You can still do that. That's the beauty of the modern era, you can dress nice if you want, but when you don't want to, you can dress however you want. One part of why people dressed better back then was there was just less options. To us looking back, we think "wow, everyone is dressed so well, even people with less money," but the reason those people with less money are dressed well is because that's one of their only sets of clothes and it was also likely handed down, possibly from wealthier people. If a kid with no money wore all hand me down clothes, it would look nice because they didn't have t shirts and athletic shorts like kids with no money end up with today. We traded style for comfort and more options, and I don't think that's a bad thing.

You nailed it Sbl! 1:24 Rockne Six. Rockne in general was only made from Dec 1931 to early 1933 and the 10 replaced the Six series in late 1932, so it HAS to be a 1932 model they advertise for! Meaning it's either Sep 1931 to Sep 1932.

@@TheDanEdwards no they just get murdered...

[@WitchKing-Of-Angmar]

@@TheDanEdwards your so busy naming the few bad things that happen to remember everything normal that surrounded the bad parts of this era. But thanks for bringing it up, we don't fucking hear enough about how RaCiSt and SexiSt and unhealthy and unadvanced the era no one fucking studies, is.

[@TheDanEdwards]

​@@HansKlopek What, you don't think there were murders in Chicago before? Or any city? Go look up what happened to organized crime (resulting in part from Prohibition.)

[@HansKlopek]

Imagine that !!The Hudson was actually half clean back then !!

This is when America was a great country

Beautiful 👍💯. I had no idea that it hasn't changed that much. The world has been a metropolis for a long time. Skyline is huge and beautiful I didn't know they had the capability to build such huge things.

This film is beautifully clear and vivid.

[@kennethstark9383]

I’m glad this person filming had foresight to do this magnificent 🇬🇧

[@cindypowers4993]

I'm fascinated by all the traffic even in those days, and by all the pedestrians walking by, crossing very busy streets, as they went about their days. And, how everyone, men and women, wore hats.

If this be New York in 1932 or thereabouts, the large 3-funnelled passanger liner moored along the Hudson could be the RMS Berengaria. RMS Queen Mary, although similar in appearance to the Berengaria, did not begin her service with The Cunard Line until 1936. There are also a couple of warships (likely post dreadnouight era battleships) pictured on the Hudson here as well. Great stuff!

This is what I was wondering about Thanks

[@seandelap8587]

Looks so clean and orderly here a very different site I expect if you happened to wander there today

[@TheDanEdwards]

"so clean and orderly here a very different site I expect if you happened to wander there today" - oh please. It's just that the person who filmed the original did not include the criminal gangs of the day, or the dirt from all the crowds, the pollution from the cars, etc.

Looks far more respectful and functional than 2023.

Everything was pretty much the same except no social media and bs.

And no MSM screaming the WEF, NWO and Agenda 2030 🐂💩.

[@kevincharles1983]

My great grandparents, grandmother, and mom were all born in Chicago. Great grandpa was definitely there while this was filmed

[@chination1796]

As a Chicago native it's cool seeing how Chicago looked back in the day

My favorite era..Great job! A window into the past..what a trip. Keep up the good work.

Where are all the homeless, roving shoplifting gangs, and gun fire?!

I don't think Al Capone was just waiting for people to record him killing people.

NASS - Bobby Sands, below literally took the words out of my mouth. 'Same.' Great video.
